Join the GSS at Bard on the Beach July 14th<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
We’re organizing a special trip to see Shakespeare’s classic comedy As You Like in the beautiful setting of Vanier Park. This joyful production is a tribute to love, laughter and music. Set in the 1960’s it features 25 classic Beatles songs.<\/p>\n

It’s a ton of fun.The cast’s performances of the songs are great, as is the lovingly recreated 1960’s setting. There\u2019s even an onstage All-Star Wrestling event before the show.<\/p>\n

Only July 28th<\/strong> \u00a0we\u2019re off to Cypress Provincial Park to hike to Eagle Bluffs! It\u2019s a 4 hour (round trip) intermediate hike that offers a spectacular view of Vancouver.\u00a0On exceptionally clear days one can see as far as Vancouver Island to the west and even the snowy slopes of Mount Baker to the south.<\/p>\n

You will need boots or runners with good tread and support – NO CONVERSE OR SANDALS! Bring at least 1 litre of water and snacks or lunch to enjoy at the bluffs. The views alone are worth the effort<\/p>\n
